The iBankup Prepaid Visa Card is perfect for people with little or no credit. It is even better for a working teenager. As soon as you apply you are given your routing number and other direct deposit information. To make it even easier to get started they will send the information via email directly to your employer.

This card has a ton of cool features and using it gives you a great reward in the form of cash back bonus points. You are able to choose an online ID and password that enables you to access your account information from day one. If you have bills that you would normally buy money orders for and use snail mail, it can be a thing of the past.

The virtual check writing is a breeze and they even send the checks to the recipients. Sign up today and get yours delivered and be ready to go in a few business days.
